Nomaza Nongqunga Coupez

Nomaza Nongqunga Coupez (born 1981) is a South African-born now based in in France. She is the founder of the French company Undiscover Canvass which promotes African artists in France. Quotes I realised how limiting it was to run the residency under a private company. Raising funds was not easy and the residency only catered for artists by Undiscovered Canvas I realised that my vision for the residency was changing. I no longer wanted to cater for Undiscovered Canvas artists only, but I wanted to work with female artists across the African continent. I wanted to create a powerful community of women artists, collectors, gallerists, investors who would consciously support each other. I am based in France for the past 12 years, and I have been running Undiscovered Canvas (promoting global investment in and profiling of African Art). My strongest impact has been to identify young and emerging artists from Southern Africa and introduce them directly into a mature market Nomaza Nongqunga Coupez shines the artists’ light in France Mail & Guardian, 6 May 2022 by Palesa Segomotso Motsumi External Links Category:1981 births Category:Businesswomen Category:Living people Category:Women artists Category:Women born in the 1980s Category:Women from South Africa
